Getting Around

Amman is a relatively small city that is easy to navigate. Metered private taxis are available at reasonable prices, and white, shared taxis cover fixed routes. Uber and Careem are options as well. Locals tend to be friendly and helpful when it comes to directions, and drivers are usually forthcoming about route information. Municipal buses travel along most routes in Amman and are efficient and safe to use, though most routes are only written in Arabic. Car hire is available, but it's a good idea to hire a vehicle with a driver, which generally involves an extra cost.
